Democratic Platform Fight Ends In Unanimous Adoption
After a 16 hour session the resolutions committee adopted the platform and adjourned for drafting to submit to the general committee. The plat form favored a gold standard and avoided a current income tax, pleasing some and drawing strong opposition from Bryan supporters. Senator Daniel and others argued for and against the gold plank as the party weighs how to win in key states like New York and Maryland. The trust plank and Panama canal language were debated with compromise reached on some points while others were dropped or modified.
